Manchester United assistant manager Ryan Giggs hasn't rethought his retirement.
Giggs, now 40, said it had been the "right time" to hang up his boots and focus on coaching.
"Playing is the best time, just going out and playing football for a living, you can't beat that.
"Coaching and preparing a team through the week and seeing them play at the weekend is pretty close. The feeling is still the same - when you lose, you're gutted and disappointed and you think it's the end of the world, and when you win it's a great feeling.
"But nothing will quite ever replace playing football and going out in front of 70-odd thousand and scoring goals, making goals and winning games."
